PLANTING GUIDE:

(Bare Root Plants – Winter dormant)

• Make sure roots are kept wet until ready for planting

• Dig a planting hole twice as wide as roots and
  combine well-rotted compost

• Create a small mound in planting hole
  for roots to sit on

• Position plant so that the main stem or graft is
  approx. 25mm above soil

• Backfill with soil, combining some slow release fertiliser

• Water well via deep soaking

• Trim back half the stem length (see diagram)

(Container Plants – any time of the year)

• Dig a hole larger than pot and combine
  slow release fertiliser to base of hole

• Remove well watered plant from pot without
  disturbing roots

• Place into hole and gently backfill with soil
  Water in well via deep soaking

  if during winter dormancy time
